Remembering where I came from…

Today I made a trip back to my old college with Dani and Bobbins.

It was lovely to have a catch up with my old tutor and the current second years and show some of my work, but weird too.
The college holds a lot of memories….laughter, fun, inspiration, challenges, hard work, stress and as I have said many times before… it made me the designer I am today (although I hope I’ve improved a bit since being at Uni)!

The second years are a couple of weeks into their FMP now… and so casual. It made me think back to my FMP when I was working day and night, basically living at the college… ahhh the memories! I love Lincoln but I do miss Skinner and his enthusiasm… I did tell the second years ‘You’ll miss him when you leave’ but of course they won’t realise until they do leave. 🙂

I was a little bit jealous that they have some great projects to do and I am sitting around doing nothing at the moment. I’m in the process of deciding on what projects to set myself for the summer – so many choices!

Oh, whilst in college I found a photo of me collecting my award for ‘Contribution to the student community’ at the exhibition evening last year…

It looks like I’m being sent off stage…. but I did choose to make a swift exit! Haha
